Is it ok for a two year old baby to eat breast milk?

It is not good for a two-year-old baby to eat breast milk, because breast milk at this time has no nutritional value, is not conducive to the baby's physical development, and breast milk cannot be easily digested by the baby, so breastfeeding is not allowed. Breastfeeding during lactation can reduce the occurrence of diseases and help the baby's gastrointestinal digestion. Everyone can learn about the benefits of breastfeeding and then choose breastfeeding according to their own physical condition.

1. Reduce the incidence of diseases

Breast milk does not lose its nutritional value after 6 months. On the contrary, breast milk contains all kinds of important nutrients that infants and young children need, as well as various immune protection factors such as antibodies and human milk oligosaccharides. If infants and young children aged 7-24 months can continue to be breastfed, the incidence of infectious diseases such as diarrhea, otitis media, and pneumonia can be significantly reduced. Because of the role of immune protective factors, continued breastfeeding can also reduce the occurrence of allergic diseases such as food allergies and atopic dermatitis in infants and young children. Nowadays, many babies suffer from allergies, so it is recommended to breastfeed until the age of 2 to increase resistance.

2. Reduce the incidence of diseases in adulthood

Studies have also found that babies who are breastfed until the age of 2 will be taller when they grow up, and will have significantly less metabolic diseases such as obesity than babies who are not breastfed.

3. It is beneficial to the mental health of infants and young children

When breastfeeding, increasing the time mother and baby spend together can enhance the emotional connection between mother and child and promote the neurological and psychological development of infants and young children. The longer breastfeeding lasts, the more benefits both mother and baby will gain.

4. Save money on milk powder

I believe that mothers who have fed their babies know that as long as they can breastfeed, they will definitely save a lot of money compared to feeding their babies with formula. So mothers who breastfeed should be thanked by fathers. Thank the mothers for saving you money on milk powder. There are so many things moms can do with this money.

Based on the above points, I believe that mothers who can breastfeed will continue to breastfeed until their baby is 2 years old or older. With so many benefits, don’t keep them to yourself, share them with the mothers around you.
